There is nothing to comprehend. There is nothing better of what he does.
His defensive plays are invisible
He's scared to use his body
He's always 1-2 sec too late with the puck.
He gets bodied way too easily , with his size he should be the one bodying people.
What don't you understand that this kid place right now is not in the NHL but in the AHL?
He averages 15min a game this season , even gets #2 PP time. What else do we need that he's simply not ready? Why are you all so scared to send him in the AHL to learn , why do people think the AHL is a prison or what? Many players learned in the AHL. Not everyone is NHL ready.
He's on pace for 15 points this season , do people not have any standards anymore? We sent other players for less in the last years , why not Slaf? The coach don't even know what to do with him to begin with.
Do we need another 230 pages to go around it? Pezetta is a bigger menace than him at this point and last time I checked , Pezetta is barely a regular in the NHL.
